Thnx for the memories
Vindaloo is dead. The greatest player of all time finally met his end after being smashed by the rat ogre of rata blanca in the fumbbl cup semi final. apo had allready been used , so this time he could not aid vin with his final death.
For me i am happy he died in this way. its better he died fighting for a place in the final of the greatest tourny in bloodbowl. Vindaloo has been awesome fun to use and has broken sooo many records and some may never be overcome.
He was allways used to his full potential, and never hid during games. I never kept his team at lowish tv to avoid getting hurt and while in ga,me vin would be leaping into cages to hit ball carriers even though it would result in multiple hits on him and ofc many fouls :-D
Vindaloo was a legend that played like a legend. he inspired a great run of games that lead to an unbeaten run of 93!
i put him in the fumbbl cup to find more glory and in my opinion , if you have a player like vindaloo or any great legend, you should use him. dont just keep it safe or dodge tournies. i am happy to have passed mr t and some of the other great legends like meuh etc . some legends i dont really care about as they just dont impress at all.
I like to think that vindaloo has now moved on to greater things and maybe now he can keep his good freind nuffle company and watch over all the legends.
Vindaloo is no longer a legend.... he is a god and his team Hot 5tuff will try to do him proud and win a tourney in his name.
Thnx for the awesome memories vin and may your son spawn into another of my teams :-D
dang this the longest blog i ever wrote and it doesnt tell half the story!!

Well said my friend

I think we all should have a curry, or at least sink a beer in his name. Piggy well done for rewriting history. Top marks from me.

every pixels die, records are meant to be broken. Rip Vindaloo, we will remember you.

What fitting end to a Fumbbl Legend

sounds like he has earned a place next to B clothesline James.
Posted by Badoek on 2012-12-24 18:46:02
so what's your plan with the team now the goal of getting vindaloo as many spps as possible?
great death though, dodging rat ogre!

I won't lie, I never cared for Vindaloo. But I did like his attitude and he deserved all those records for the way he lived and played. I wish Hot 5tuff success in winning that tourney to honor him.

Vindaloo, the elf personifying 'i'd rather die on my feet than live on my knees.'
Loved the way you played him, and love that he's dead.
So long.

Gotta say, when I watched the replay, I was very surprised you chose to apo the mb-only wardancer.
Posted by happygrue on 2012-12-24 21:00:17
Quite a match! Apo use was good IMO. Three elves out already, having a MB dancer against rats instead of 4 elves out could have easily been a game deciding event. Gotta play for the win!

aye chainy i do belive you are not thinking straight. its the fumbbl cup for a start and ofc i played ftw. i have used apo on players lots of times when vindaloo is at risk. i even used on a ko before to secure a win while vin was lying on the floor to be fouled :-) never be surprised at what i do just be curious and feel free to ask :P
Posted by the_Sage on 2012-12-24 22:09:08
The tourney to now win in his name is of course the FC. =)
Posted by Chainsaw on 2012-12-25 00:48:59
That's probably why Nuffle let you keep the stat freak so long - you weren't overly protective!
Playing FTW, that's what we all like to see. :)

Great legend, great record but more importantly, greatly played. This is the reason why I still play blood bowl. I just wish I had seen it to be able to tell the tale of Vindaloo.
/cheer for his career

Great to have played against Vin, an inspiration too so many.
Needle creeps back into the top 25 with his passing ;D
Gratz again mate and I shall toast his passing with another ale.

In the 5 games that he played against Cloverfield he made a reputation as the player we most wanted to kill, ever. I'm really pleased that someone now tops the fumbbl records that didn't just play it safe and spend a career killing elves and halflings (lets face it, they ain't hard to kill, unless their name is Vindaloo). We smashed him a few times but the bloody apoth had to stick his nose in. He even got his all-time most Td's record against us.
RIP Vindaloo, you psychotic, annoying, vicious, ST5 bastard :)
